Understanding Vascular Disease: Symptoms, Risks, and Modern Treatment Options

Vascular disease encompasses a range of conditions affecting the circulatory system, particularly the arteries and veins. It often involves narrowing or blocking blood vessels, which restricts normal blood flow to organs and limbs. Vascular disease is more than just poor circulation; it’s a serious medical issue that can lead to pain, skin changes, wounds, or even limb loss.

Some of the most common vascular conditions include:

• Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD)

• Chronic Venous Insufficiency (CVI)

• Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT)

• Varicose veins

At Sinai Vein and Wound Care, we treat vascular disease using modern, minimally invasive techniques designed to restore blood flow and prevent complications. Whether using ultrasound-guided procedures or image-assisted interventions, our board-certified vascular specialists create personalised plans to reduce symptoms and improve your quality of life.

You may be at higher risk for vascular disease if you:

• Have diabetes or high blood pressure

• Smoke or have a history of smoking

• Lead a sedentary lifestyle

• Have a family history of vascular disease

We encourage early evaluation for anyone experiencing leg pain, skin discolouration, slow-healing wounds, or visible vein changes. Ignoring these signs may lead to more severe problems over time.
